The US Open war over jeans has faded

Metropolitan Pacific Properties chief Steve Osman had what could have been an awkward run-in with Billie Jean King Tuesday at Michael’s restaurant.

Last year, Osman, who hosted an annual US Open benefit with the tennis champ for the City Parks Foundation, was booted from the president’s suite of Arthur Ashe Stadium by United States Tennis Association President Katrina Adams when his friend showed up in faded jeans not up to dress code.

We hear Osman, who had donated $25,000 last year, had not spoken to King since the incident, but they were cordial when meeting at Michael’s and hugged.

Osman says he plans to rent his own suite this year where only people in faded jeans are permitted.
